Uneventful Pregnancy

No news is good news when you're talking about a pregnancy. I had my second appointment a few weeks ago, and everything is going smoothly. Rob came with me and met the doctor. He asked her the usual husbandly questions like "How long have you been an OB?" and "How many babies have you delivered?" I was proud that he wanted to come and even ask questions. He's going to be a great coach! We got to hear the heartbeat. It was a relief to hear that there really is a baby in there, even if I can't see it or feel it.

I feel great. Well, I feel a little tired after a long day of work, but I would say that's pretty normal. Who's not tired after a long day of work? I can't say that I've really felt all that pregnant, yet. I don't have any major cravings, I'm not hungry all the time, I'm not particularly moody (though Rob may beg to differ), and I don't have a large tummy, yet. My clothes are getting tight, though. I purchased a few maternity outfits when I was visiting my family in Atlanta. I've worn them, and they are way more comfortable that my other clothes. However, I feel a little silly wearing them with no big belly sticking out. The only belly I have is the one that will no longer really "suck in" like it used to. I can try to suck in, but the belly goes nowhere. So basically, I just look chubby, which is why I have not posted any of those infamous belly pictures that women take during their pregnancies. You won't see any of those until I cease to look merely pudgy and start to look obviously pregnant. Believe me, you don't want to see it at this point.

I have another appointment in a week, and I have a feeling it'll be just as uneventful, which is good!
